I guess if it is a better codec and its freely available, your not allowed to have it. Only paid [.]. The raw files I was working with were 1024x768 and the highest resolution I could get, and that was under DviX was 1025x768. for it instead of the [.]. Studio 11 offers the basic ones, and since i like to stay with AVI until I am done with my production, I am only offered DivX or raw AVI. The one reason I kept it on my computer as long as I did was for the chroma key function. It gave me an immediate feel of a switch and bait scam.
What are some of it's many flaws. Never used it much and today I confirmed I was robbed for buying this piece of crap. For starters, it one has very few useful effects. Discovered a way to do it with VirtualDub.
I bought this brand new from Circuit City as they went out of business. "We have the effected listed, but it will cost you a bunch and you have to buy it with all this useless stuff."The biggest flaw with this program, as a few effects did have possibilities, is how it is outputted into its video file. Having used VirtualDub as a tweaker/refiner of my raw footage, I am aware of the abundance of video codecs one can compress with. There is no possibility to use a better codec such as Xvid. Most of the traditional bread and butter effects one wants do not seem to exist or are a bit poor in execution. I can not see how it could have been improved in version 12.I uninstantiated Pinnacle Studio today and what will I do about a chroma key. price on the tag. That was like okay, I can re-tweak it in VirtualDub (which will let you compress it to any size you want).
Most of the effects and transitions (and there are hundreds of them) are cutesy and so amateurish in concept that one would never see them in a true professional production. Then most of the effects listed are actually pay to use, and for more money then they are worth. Well what came out was something that looked like it had originally been 320x240 and blown up to 1024x420, leaving blocky, square pixels where my original was crisp and smooth.Pinnacle Studio 11 Ultimate is ultimate garbage with an overpriced tag. Not easy, but the results are thousands of times better Pinnacle Studio could ever do.And VirtualDub is free
I purchased Studio 9 and ended up throwing it into the garbage. If they could release something as bad as Studio 9 I recommend not trusting these crooks again. You can find out more about Studio 9 by looking at the reviews.
Pinnacle cannot render itself out of a paper bag. Not being able to correctly render your own project files is pretty pathetic.
I tried to make the hd movie from my JVC HD cam, frist, it can not detect my cam, second, too many code to enter to unknock the feature,third, not all of them work, it took me whole month and still to work on it, I tried every think to made it detect my cam, and it can not read tod format, I owen Pinacle 7,8,9,10 they all work good but the 11, forget the suport, it take you century to wait on the phone, and the answer of your question is reinstore, and still not work.
I wont dwell to long on this review. To be completely honest there is free software available that will load and partially encode a video before Studio even gets the same video loaded after selecting it. If you are serious about your editing then STAY AWAY from this product. Horrible at handling large files, which if your into HD video this can be a serious issue. Once it does load things do not get any better.This software is fine for someone who does not know better and any good reviews will be from those exact people. Save your money and look around for free, faster alternatives.
